Chapter 106: Kill Further
Although Qi Laohan scolded Li Guo, Li Guo saw satisfaction in Qi Laohan's expression, so Li Guo, who won the battle, was very happy.
Li Guo wanted to find a captive and ask about the situation of the Tartars who came to attack, but Li Guo's soldiers were fierce enough, and in line with the principle of killing those who fled, they killed all those who fell to the ground except those who escaped. Li Guo had no choice but to give up.
But Li Guo was not in a hurry to go back, because Qi Laohan was scolding again.
"Nothing, what city to guard?" Qi Laohan saw the defense of Xikou Fort and angrily reprimanded Li Guo.
Li Guo scratched his head, "That, master, now the Tartars outside the gate rarely attack, so the scale of more than a thousand people is already a lot." ”
"Humph!" Qi Laohan snorted coldly, "Being a man is most afraid of self-righteousness, and he is most afraid of being lucky!" But you have to go one city and one place, if you don't want to defend it, you don't need to say it, if you want to defend it, how can you be fooled like this?! Have you forgotten those fierce Houjin soldiers? ”
Qi Laohan said that Li Guo's heart was cold, so he asked Zhao Youbin to go to the three-sided yamen to find Zhao Youting and help transfer some weapons to defend the city. In addition, the heads of those slain Tartars were also cut off by Li Twelve, so that he could ask for merit so that he could have more weapons to defend the city. Li Guo didn't expect that because of Qi Laohan's words, such an arrangement would come in handy.
And Qi Laohan chattered endlessly on the head of the city, what place should be equipped with a cannon, that place should be reinforced, etc., Li Guo wrote them down one by one, and at the risk of being scolded, he tirelessly asked Qi Laohan for the reason for doing that.
In this way, Li Guo took people to live in Xikoubao, and Li Guo waited until tomorrow to ask Qi Laohan about the city defense, and then went back. Fortunately, Li Guo made such a decision.
Besides, the few Tartar soldiers who escaped from Li Guo's hands ran back to the Bansheng named Liu Jiabao.
Bal Hu and Liu Han were drinking in Liujiabao, and for them, it would be easy for 1,500 men to deal with the Ming army guarding the Great Wall. But looking at the few people who fled for their lives, Bal Hu and Liu Han were dumbfounded.
Balhu listened to the report of the frightened Tartar soldiers, and became angry, and threw the wine bowl in one fell swoop, and kicked the Tartar soldiers who spoke: "You bunch of waste! Even the Ming army can't be defeated, what's the use of being alive? ”
Liu Han hurriedly grabbed him, "Don't worry, listen to what he has to say." Balhu sat down.
The two of them listened for a long time, and finally understood. From the mouth of that Tartar soldier, what he said was no longer true, and the people who passed Li Guo were like heavenly soldiers and generals.
The two of them didn't believe it, and when they asked each other about the number of people, they understood that there were many people on the other side. There are more people and fewer people, and it is easy to win. But the Ming army has always been scared, how can it suddenly be brave, but I really don't understand.
Speaking of this, Liu Han was not ready to attack Xikou Fort, he couldn't do this. Now that I have food and drink in my own territory, I don't want to go to Datong or go to Zhangjiakou to change it back, everything has been solved, so why take the risk?
But the Balhu is different, the Balhu tribe is now short of clothes and clothing, cattle and sheep have been lost, and the men, women and children in the tribe are almost unable to open the pot, how can they not grab something.
In addition, a while ago, he was driven by the emperor Taiji of Houjin, and his morale was already low, but now he was defeated by the Ming army guarding the border, if he did not retaliate, I am afraid that the people of the tribe will be separated from Germany, and the whole tribe may be scattered.
So, Bal Tiger decided to fight.
One wants to fight, the other doesn't want to fight, the two argued for a long time, Liu Han said, "Okay, then fight again, but this time I will only do cover, charge you!" ”
"Okay, but you're going to have to cut the spoils less!" Bal Tiger is really poor.
Liu Han nodded, thinking, looking at the situation, this Ming army is not so easy to deal with.
So, the next day, Bal Hu led the 3,000 cavalry brought by the tribe in front, and Liu Han led the 3,000 cavalry of Liujiabao behind, and slaughtered to Xikou Fort.
From afar, the sentry reported the situation to Li Guo.
Li Guo climbed the city wall and looked at the situation in front of him, and said to Qi Laohan on the side, "Master, I want to call the enemy just arrived and his foothold is unstable. Let's set up a battle formation and kill him! ”
Qi Laohan nodded!
So, Li Guo immediately walked down the city wall, waved his hand, and shouted, "Queue!" ”
Three thousand cavalry and five hundred soldiers of the strongbow battalion immediately lined up and prepared to attack.
The formation that Li Guo put out was a triangle, which was a common formation for cavalry. The first was Li Guo, who was on the tip of the triangle.
Li Guo fought first, and everyone refused, but Li Guo came up stubbornly and scolded, "The leader can't lead by example, what qualifications do you have to be the boss!" In a word, the soldier's heart was warm.
So, Li Guo stood in the first place, followed by Liu Tichun and Li Twelve.
The risk of doing this is actually very great, and the three brothers are standing on the cusp of the storm, and it is easy to be wiped out by the enemy if they don't make trouble. But the advantage of this is that the soldiers are going crazy, and when they see Li Guo killing the enemy first, their courage is doubled, and as the saying goes, the morale is screaming!
Li Guo raised his head and looked at the city wall, where Qi Laohan was looking out of the city. Suddenly, Qi Laohan turned around and waved his hand at Li Guo, who immediately shouted, "Open the door!" ”
Then, Li Guo was killed.
Seeing that about 3,000 Ming troops were killed in the city, Balhu laughed, he was laughing at these people for going crazy. If the Ming army sticks to the fortified city, to be honest, Balhu really has nothing to do. But didn't these cavalry of the Ming army hit the stone with an egg on their own grassland iron cavalry?
So, the Tartar soldiers rushed over with a shout, and when they rushed to the front, the Tartar soldiers were dumbfounded.
On the two sides of the front tip of the triangular formation of the Ming army, there were two rows of soldiers, they were riding on galloping horses, and they were holding spears nearly four meters long in their hands.
Some people say, isn't this nonsense? Take such a long gun right away, and you'll be tired after holding it for a while, and you'll be all in order, Superman? Of course, it was not superman, because in order to prevent the soldiers with spears from getting tired, two butts were attached to the front and back of the saddle, so it was not at all difficult to point at the enemy and hold the barrel of the gun.
Seeing the dense spear tips, the wild and unruly grassland men were dumbfounded, but the cavalry of the Ming army had already rushed to the front, and some wild and unruly Tartars roared angrily, wanting to fight with Li Guo and them, but the scimitar could not reach, and those who could not dodge were directly stabbed off the horse by the spear. Even with the fierce charge, a Tartar was pierced through the chest by a spear, and the whole person was hung on the spear, and blood came out of the chest, and the whole ash spear was dyed red.
The cavalry of the Tartars was torn open and more than 300 were stabbed to death on the spot.
The strongbow battalion of Sikten, who followed closely behind the pikes, also made two rows. When the spear broke through the enemy, Sikten fired the first arrow.
The brethren of the more than 500 strong bow battalions had already prepared, and all of them drew their bows and shot out.
Although they were on horseback, although the enemy was also running, the brothers of the strongbow battalion, in line with the principle of being steady, accurate and ruthless, flew over with a shower of arrows, and more than 300 Tartar soldiers were killed by these men with accurate archery!
Li Guo led the pikemen and then rushed forward, and the cavalry of Balhu was already in disarray and could not resist. was directly torn apart by Li Guo's men and horses.
The cavalry is compared to the formation, the momentum is compared, and the speed is compared. Bal Tiger they messed up, lost morale, they didn't have time to fight back, so they lost their lives!
Liu Han, who was still some distance away from the Balhu cavalry, saw that the Balhu cavalry was torn in two, and immediately restrained the horse, and when he looked at Li Guo, who continued to rush forward, Liu Han was stunned for a moment.
At this time, a big arrow kept shooting, and directly shot off the horse of a personal soldier next to Liu Han!
Liu Han didn't hesitate at all, and immediately turned around and ran away with the people. Liu Han couldn't run anymore, he found that his men ran faster than him!
